From 8d470a45d1a65e6a308aeee5da7f5b37d3303c04 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Guilherme G. Piccoli" Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2022 16:07:06 -0700 Subject: panic: add option to dump all CPUs backtraces in panic_print Currently the "panic_print" parameter/sysctl allows some interesting debug information to be printed during a panic event. This is useful for example in cases the user cannot kdump due to resource limits, or if the user collects panic logs in a serial output (or pstore) and prefers a fast reboot instead of a kdump. Happens that currently there's no way to see all CPUs backtraces in a panic using "panic_print" on architectures that support that. We do have "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl, but although partially overlapping in the functionality, they are orthogonal in nature: "panic_print" is a panic tuning (and we have panics without oopses, like direct calls to panic() or maybe other paths that don't go through oops_enter() function), and the original purpose of "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" is to provide more information on oopses for cases in which the users desire to continue running the kernel even after an oops, i.e., used in non-panic scenarios. So, we hereby introduce an additional bit for "panic_print" to allow dumping the CPUs backtraces during a panic event.
